AR-Room consists of a lot of deployable components for core augmented reality technologies, modules for hardware abstraction, and an authoring toolkit for the rapid content design. On the AR-Room, application developers are only required to describe their content scenarios together with a configuration of software components. Four major procedures in an application are an image analyzer, an interaction handler, a rendering engine and an image synthesizer. A content scenario is represented by a set of event-action pairs. According to the provided scenarios the designated components cooperatively provide real-time analysis and synthesis of input video frames.
